Dylan Cavin unveils new ledger work at Acosta Strong Fine Art
Choctaw painter Dylan Cavin had a strong showing at August’s Santa Fe Indian Market, where he had a booth on Lincoln Avenue, along the market’s most major artery. The artist has been fusing Western imagery with Native American ledger art, creating a unique blending of styles and cultures. In addition to his Native American subjects draped in traditional weavings, he also is painting more classic cowboy figures on antique paper. His cutting-edge work is already enticing Western collectors of all varieties. Although Santa Fe Indian Market is over, Cavin shows his work at Acosta Strong Fine Art in Santa Fe at the base of historic Canyon Road.See more work at www.acostastrong.com.

Altamira Fine Art nabs new work from Tony Abeyta
New Mexico painter Tony Abeyta, one of the most prominent Native American modernists in the country, has sent two new paintings to Altamira Fine Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The pieces are Bird Sanctuary and Nourishing Rains (seen here). Both are oils and large, with Nourishing Rains measuring 60 by 80 inches. Abeyta (Navajo (Diné)) transforms and abstracts the Southwestern landscapes, creating unique visions of the high desert, its wildlife and people. Many of his works highlight rain and fire and their roles within the natural world.

New landscapes from Paige Pierson at Blue Rain Gallery
Santa Fe’s Blue Rain Gallery has new work available from Paige Pierson, whose works speak to the vastness and beauty of the American Southwest. This new painting, Chaistla Butte Sunrise, measures only 10 by 20 inches, but it packs in lots of moodiness and atmosphere within its small footprint. The work depicts Chaistla Butte, a 6,000-foot volcanic formation south of Monument Valley in Arizona. These rocky peaks, many of them sacred to the Navajo people, rise dramatically from the desert and represent millions of years of geological history.Inquire about this piece and others at www.blueraingallery.com. —
